NAME
addchain - create a chain and add it to a listSYNOPSYS
#include "mut.h" chain_list ∗addchain(pthead, ptdata) chain_list ∗pthead; void ∗ptdata;PARAMETERS
pthead Pointer to a chain_list ptdata Generic pointer to any kind of informationDESCRIPTION
addchain creates a new chain element and adds it to the front of the list pointed to by pthead, and becomes itself the list head. The chain_lists are mosty used to create temporary lists of homogeneous elements, for binary trees, and so on. The ptdata points to any kind of list or may itself be a value, if proper cast is per‐ formed at compilation time, and fills the DATA field of the chain structure. For details on the structure, see chain(3).RETURN VALUE
addchain returns a pointer to the new head of list.EXAMPLE
#include "mut.h" #include "mlo.h" chain_list ∗get_external_connectors(ptfig) lofig_list ∗ptfig; { locon_list ∗pt = ptfig->LOCON; chain_list ∗c = NULL; /∗ initialized for regularity ∗/ while (pt) { if (pt->TYPE == EXTERNAL) c = addchain(c, (void ∗)pt) pt = pt->NEXT; } return c; }SEE ALSO
